Ignore expired certificate during certificate validation

Browse Source 
OpenSSL has a bug when validating a chain with two certificates.
If a certificate exists twice (which is a valid use case for renewed
CAs), and the first one it hits is expired (which depends on the order
on data structure internal to OpenSSL), it will fail to validate the
chain.

This is only a bandaid fix, which trades improved chain validation
for error reporting accuracy. However given that reissuing of CA certs
is a real problem that is only getting worse, this fix is needed.

[ChangeLog][QtNetwork][QSslSocket] Added a workaround to an OpenSSL problem
that may cause errors when the trust store contains two certificates of the
issuing CA, one of which is expired.
